Originally posted by bobbotron Is there a way to get the approximate number of shots left to display on the top LCD
The 'image storage capacity' value (i.e., shots remaining) of the active card is usually displayed briefly (1-3 seconds?) on the LCD
when the camera is powered on. Then it disappears, and the ISO value appears. Sometimes, the value is not displayed when the camera is powered on. I haven't been able to figure out the inconsistency. Perhaps it's a timing thing -- the camera needs to be off for a certain time.
The value is also displayed briefly on the LCD and in the viewfinder immediately after a shot is taken, which is a useful and timely indication.
I don't know whether the value can be displayed on command by the user.
